Chapter 1012: Peerless Carving (I)

Yelu Chara has absolute self-confidence, maybe he may not be able to compare with Yang Huairen in seasoning at present, but in some other aspects, he is definitely better than Yang Huairen.

Yelu Chara thought about all this clearly, and smiled at Yang Huairen, "Now that Zhongjing Dao has not yet started spring, there are few decent fresh vegetables, and if you try to stir-fry vegetables, it seems that you can't fully show the true level of your cooking skills."

As for meat, I heard that you Song people don't often eat meat, and you want to try meat dishes, I'm afraid that everyone will laugh at me for bullying Yang Jungong.

So, let's try the carver! ”

Yang Huairen frowned when he heard this, and said in his heart, where is this, you don't dare to have a traditional cooking competition with me, why do you find so many strange reasons?

The Song people don't often eat meat, although the Great Song Dynasty can't compare to the Liao State so many meat sources, but it doesn't mean that the Song people can't afford to eat meat, and it doesn't mean that the chefs of the Great Song Dynasty can't make meat dishes, why don't you say that the Song people can't even afford to eat tea and eggs?

You're really a big toad at the bottom of the well, and you think crazy all day long about a swan falling into the well and making you eat meat, right?

In fact, no matter which aspect of Yelu Chara proposed to test his cooking skills, Yang Huairen was not afraid of him, but he couldn't get used to his appearance of being very modest on the outside and wild on the inside.

"Compare knife work, right? Such a comparison? ”

Yelu Cha shook his head thoughtfully, "Yang Jungong, you heard it wrong, it's not a knife worker, it's a carver!" ”

Yang Huairen actually did it on purpose, and said in his heart that you are pretending to be with me, and I am not your father, it is not bad to tease you before the competition, and entertain the public.

"What? It's not a knife worker, it's a knife worker? What kind of work is this? Yang Huairen pretended to be deaf.

Yelu Chara knew that his Chinese accent was a little accented, so he used his tongue and said again, "It's not a knife, it's an eagle!" ”

"Alas......"

Yang Huairen sighed, "Forget it, can't you hang it, you don't have to repeat it so many times, everyone has heard it, if you are afraid that others will not know, you can take off your pants and show it to everyone." ”

The people who watched the excitement understood what was going on, and the Khitans who supported Yelu Chara knew that Yang Huairen was deliberately mocking Yelu Chara, and they all glared at Yang Huairen angrily.

And some other people who watched the excitement held their mouths and laughed badly in their hearts, they usually couldn't stand the Khitan people's power and blessings, and finally someone stood up to mock them in broad daylight, these people were already happy, if it weren't for the fear that the Khitan people would find fault and retaliate, I am afraid they would have laughed out loud.

Yelu Chara couldn't hold back either, and said angrily, "Yang Huairen, are you better than you, don't admit defeat quickly, according to the punishment method you said, get out of the way and shout a thousand 'I'm a pig'!" ”

"Bibi, Bibi," Yang Huairen pouted, "But this Chef Yeluchara, your accent is too difficult to understand, why don't you show your cooking skills first, and I will also follow your method to show your cooking skills, even if we have tried it, please judge everyone present, how about it?" ”

"Humph!"

Yelu Chara glared at Yang Huairen coldly, walked to a table, and among the piles of vegetables that could be bought nowadays, he picked up a red heart radish and showed it to everyone.

"Next, I'm going to use this radish to carve a landscape painting scroll for everyone! It's ugly! ”

Only then did everyone in the audience understand that Yelu Chara was going to test the carving skills with Yang Huairen, speaking of which, this is also a kind of knife work, and it is a more complicated one.

I saw that Yelu Chara looked intently at the big red radish in his hand, suddenly smiled, and took out the knife he was carrying with him and placed it on the table.

The first is a kitchen knife, which is not different from the kitchen knife used in ordinary kitchens, and Jeruchara first uses a kitchen knife to cut the head and tail, and then begins to peel the turnips.

He is very skillful in peeling the radish, turning the radish in his left hand, and slashing back and forth quickly with a knife in his right hand, and the peeled radish skin almost repeats the same trajectory and arc from the air, which is really good at first glance.

The audience in the audience saw that Yeluchara was skillful, and their confidence in him increased a little, and they did not hesitate to applaud and encourage Yeluchara.

Jerucharat was very focused, as if he couldn't hear all the noise around him, and was only engrossed in the turnips and kitchen knives in his hands.

Yang Huairen didn't panic at all when he saw this, and said in his heart This is the most basic knife work, something that apprentices in the Great Song Dynasty must know, the Khitan people are really lonely and unheard, they are all like turtles, this is also good? Wonder is the daughter of ignorance!

As a professional cook, his focus is completely different from that of ordinary people who watch the excitement, and he is more concerned about what kind of blank he has made after peeling this fat-looking red heart radish, from which he can guess what exactly he is going to carve.

Seeing the final shape of the radish blank, Yang Huairen had already guessed three points.

Jeruchara looked sideways and vertically at the peeled turnip in his hand, and added a few more knives to the blank until he was satisfied, and then put down the kitchen knife and replaced it with a carving knife.

The carving knife is much smaller than the kitchen knife, a bit like a pen, except that the tip of the pen has been replaced with a sharp blade, which is very easy to hold in your hand, and using it to carve a radish is like drawing on a radish with a pen.

Jeruchara's hand slowed down, the carving knife in his hand dug or chipped, and the turnip gradually revealed a rough shape.

The audience was intently staring at the turnip in Jeruchara's hand, and had already begun to guess what he was carving.

Yang Huairen didn't need to guess, he saw that the eyes and nose on the radish were gradually revealing the rudiment, so he had already confirmed his guess, and said that Yelu Chara really had a certain level, but how high it was, it was really not possible.

Yelu Cha was also serious, the movements of his hands were cautious, and beads of sweat gradually oozed from his forehead, at least for the concentration of carving, Yang Huairen felt that it was still commendable.

After a while, there was a burst of exclamation among the audience, and it turned out that someone had already seen that the red heart radish in Yeluchara's hand had turned into the shape of a wolf's head.

Yelu Chara was already putting the finishing touches on it, making the details of the wolf's facial features more prominent, and finally he turned the wolf's head in his hand and looked at it for a while, feeling that he was very satisfied, and then his face showed a confident smile again.

Jeruchara carefully placed the wolf's head carved out of carrots on the table and moved it forward so that the audience could take a closer look.

The wolf head really attracted a lot of praise from the audience, and the wolf was originally the favorite animal totem of the Khitan people, so Yelu Chara's work was warmly applauded by the Khitan people present.
